Classification of plant mineral nutrients according to biochemical function

Mineral nutrient	Functions
A.)  Silicon(Si)	1.)    Constituent of alcohol dehydrogenase, glutamic dehydrogenase, carbonic anhydrase, etc
B.)  Manganese(Mn)	2.)    Component of sugar phosphates, nucleic acids, nucleotides, coenzymes, phospholipids, phytic acid, etc. Has a key role in reactions that involve ATP
C.)  Zinc(Zn)	3.)    Contributes to cell wall mechanical properties, including rigidity and elasticity.
D.)  Phosphorous(P)	4.)    Component of ascorbic acid oxidase, tyrosinase, monoamine oxidase, uricase, cytochrome oxidase, phenolase, laccase, and plastocyanin.
E.)   Copper(Cu)	5.)    Required for activity of some dehydrogenases, decarboxylases, kinases, oxidases, and peroxidases. Involved with other cation-activated enzymes and photosynthetic O2 evolution

Match the following  Special Techniques Are Used in Nutritional Studies;

A.) Hydroponic growth system	1.) plant roots lie on the surface of a trough, and nutrient solutions flow in a thin layer along the trough over the roots and this system ensures that the roots receive an ample supply of oxygen
B.) Nutrient film growth system	2.) In this technique, plants are grown with their roots suspended in air while being sprayed continuously with a nutrient solution, This approach provides easy manipulation of the gaseous environment around the root
C.) Aeronic growth system	3.) The technique of growing plants with their roots immersed in nutrient solution without soil and requires a large volume of nutrient solution or frequent adjustment of the nutrient solution to prevent nutrient uptake by roots from producing radical changes in nutrient concentrations and pH of the medium.

Mengel and Kirkby  have proposed that the essential elements be classified instead according to their biochemical role and physiological function, It shows such a classification, in which plant nutrients have been divided into some basic groups these are;

a.) The first group is nutrients that are part of carbon compounds

b.) The second group is important in energy storage reactions or in maintaining structural integrity

c.) The third group has important roles in reactions involving electron transfer or redox reaction

d.) The fourth group is present in plant tissue as either free ions or ions bound
